International Picnic Day is celebrated on June 18th as a lighthearted way to enjoy the outdoors, good food, and great company. While its exact origins are unclear, the day encourages people around the world to take a break from their routines, pack a meal, and head outside—whether to a park, beach, backyard, or countryside.
It’s a celebration of simple pleasures: fresh air, shared laughter, and the joy of eating together. Whether with friends, family, or solo with a book and a blanket, International Picnic Day is the perfect excuse to slow down and soak up nature.
At its heart, the day is all about connection, relaxation, and making the most of life’s little moments.
While picnicking with your friends and family, be sure to let them know about the potential of receiving up to $2,000 in free money through the Canada Learning Bond for post-secondary education.
